Context of Exodus 36:10

8All the skilled craftsmen among the workers made the inner tent with ten sheets made from fine linen yarn and violet, purple, and bright red yarn. An angel design was creatively worked into the fabric. 9Each sheet was 42 feet long and 6 feet wide—all the same size. Five of the sheets were sewn together, and the other five were also sewn together. 11Then they made 50 violet loops along the edge of the end sheet in each set, 12placing the loops opposite each other.
